Yes I understand that but I don't want to have the full source code
residing inside my root file system. Also I don't want to have the object
files (.o files) that are created as a result of compilation - I want to do
a 'make clean' or 'make mrproper'. Is it okay to do 'make mrproper' (or at
least 'make clean') and copy the source to /usr/src/linux-3.4-rc5 for
compiling out of tree modules?

Thanks,
Prasanna
